17 BALMORAL CLOSE Price Paid vs. HPI Average

The below graph shows the average detached house price in the Lewes local authority area over time, sourced from the HPI. The three 17 BALMORAL CLOSE sales between August 1999 and May 2016 have been plotted on the graph. A line has been extrapolated to show what the value of the property might have been over time, following each sale, had it maintained the same margin above or below the HPI (as a percentage). For example, the October 2000 sale was for 30% below the HPI. So the extrapolation line tracks at 30% below the HPI over time, until the May 2016 sale, where it falls to 36% below the HPI. The line then continues to track at 36% below the HPI.

What might 17 BALMORAL CLOSE be worth now?
